Walking Tour: Summer Saturday Morning in Zagreb Downtown Cafes (Croatia) - 4K UHD Virtual Travel

Zagreb coffee culture is a blend of three neighboring cultures coming together: Italian, Austro - Hungarian and Ottoman. As a result, people from Zagreb usually take their espresso (with or without milk) in a Viennese-style café slowly and without hurry just like Ottomans used to. :)
An American blogger Cody McClain Brown, for years living in Croatia, once neatly extracted the essence of coffee drinking in, not just Zagreb, but the whole of Croatia: "Coffee in Croatia is where everything gets done. It is where friends meet, where deals are made, it’s how favors are asked, it’s how people are hired, fired, introduced, married, divorced, everything."
And certainly, the special time for social coffee drinking in Zagreb is Saturday morning. It may be referred to as: "špica" (pronounced "shpitza") and it implies leisurely coffee drinking in the strict city center, probably in one of café streets around the main square with a prime - time between 10 am and 14 pm.
And there are plenty of good occasions for solo coffee drinking as well: when you're done with your errands or have some spare time between them - you'll go for a coffee, if you need to study or work on your laptop, if you're a mother with a sleeping baby in a stroller or you just want to be by yourself for a bit and read a book - you'll go for a coffee. There is always a good reason! :)
So, let's walk around downtown Zagreb on a nice summer Saturday morning and enjoy some of Zagreb coffee culture.

Yes, I would agree with you, Zagreb girls are mostly beautiful. :)

[@33neptun]

But there's nothing for you to hope for. Zagreb girls are Croatians and they stick with Croatian guys.

I have a question if that's okay! The header of your channel, that beautiful park - where is that?

[@movingforward-walk-and-relax]

Yeah, it's ok. :) That is Maksimir Park in Zagreb.

@@doraamalia9278 Thanks! I'm guessing you're from somewhere around here? That is near that big meadow.

[@biserkastanisic4007]

@@doraamalia9278, in reality it is even more beautiful, and I'm pretty sure you know that. 💙

Trg republike?

[@movingforward-walk-and-relax]

Da, nekadašnji Trg republike, sada već dugo Trg bana Jelačića. :)

[@StatisticsJason]

Croatians look so thin and in shape compared to Americans. The difference is quite shocking.

[@movingforward-walk-and-relax]

Well I can't judge - I was never in the USA but you could be right. I think that food quality in Croatia is much better than in the USA, at least the food that is available to average middle-class and lower class people.

[@StatisticsJason]

@@movingforward-walk-and-relax That must be a part of it since those are the income groups our obesity is concentrated. Also, I think Americans walk less than people in most of the world.

[@movingforward-walk-and-relax]

@@StatisticsJason oh yes, walking and cycling is quite common in Croatia, but our cities are much smaller and you can easily go about your day without a car. I personally (as can be seen here 😆) looove walking. I often walk just for resting my mind and getting some exercise as well.
